A 467 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Permits county board of elections to open certain ballot drop boxes for fire district elections.

This bill expands existing ballot drop box access to include fire district elections. It requires county boards of elections to open two specific ballot drop boxes during fire district elections: the one closest to the municipal clerk's office and any drop box at the election board/county office. The bill also mandates that counties retrieve mail-in ballots from these boxes at least once per week during fire district elections. This change directly affects fire district voters and election administrators by extending the same ballot drop box procedures currently used for municipal and school elections.
